This is my second bass, which I bought mainly for recording. After three months of active use, I can say that the instrument has fully met my expectations.
The bass offers a wide range of tonal possibilities — you can dial in a huge variety of sounds for different needs. The pickups are truly impressive: deep and punchy lows, clear and expressive mids, and sharp, biting highs. The result is a versatile tone that sits perfectly in the mix.
For rock and metal genres, the Ibanez SR505E is simply an excellent choice: comfortable, flexible, and very musical.
